Thank you so much for your answer about the factory and satellite bikes, and I think my brain is not cooperating with me so early in the morning but what was exactly the issue with Pecco -if it is too controversial to answer you can totally ignore this, also I’m a Pecco fan but I don’t care if he did something controversial I will be the first to say something cuz why would I defend him if did something controversial/wrong-
Hi again anon πŸ‘‹πŸ‘‹πŸ‘‹πŸ‘‹.
I'm glad I helped you.
I put it under the cut not because it was particularly bad, actually him being a whinny rider and using the media is not the worst he has done. I did it because some Pecco fans, the same way that there are Fabio and I imagine other riders too, get angry when you show or talk bad about their riders. The issue here is that some fans have put riders in a pedestal and won't recognize that they are (mostly) white privileged (yes some suffered hardship to reach the top, but now they have whatever they want in their hands) men that can committee errors and mistake and Pecco has committee several off track.
A while ago another anon asked me about problematic riders and I did a whole compilation (here), but this is Pecco's;
-Mysogenistic comments: 'I was like a women in my period complaining ad moaning' after he broke his leg.He never apologised for his (it was when he was a Pramac rider).
- DIU: during the 2022 summer got drunk in Ibiza, got in the car and had an accident (crashed it into a roundabout) and only got a slap in the wrist. Him and Ducati swept it under the rug and prohibited a journalist from talking about this. They even banned one journalist (I can't remember who) from going to their hospitality and doing their job.
- Dennis Rodman special helmet (if you don't know him, go and read his wiki page).
- Media: he goes to the media and cry. He nearly believes no one can race him on a race track. He has previously said satellite bikes need to be slower than factory bikes and complained when other riders raced against him. And lets say something on Saturday he wasn't the cleanest rider to be giving lessons.
I don't remember anything else back then, and I still don't remember anything more now.
Look you can be a Pecco fan and I don't have a problem with that, last year I preferred him over Fabio to win the championship. My problem is with the nearly fanatic fans some riders attract and this post is not to turn any one against Pecco (or any other rider), I mean we are all free to like who we want (I like the Dani, who actually spend a night in jail (and apparently there's another who spend a whole week (?) in a Japanesse jail) and pretend it never happen, just acknowledge that riders are human and make mistake.
